We visited Julia and Paul on one of the last nice, convertible-friendly, summery evenings in Sept. I admired several of these crafty things on their family room window sills. Next thing I know, Julia has handed me all the fixin's to take home to make my own pumpkin.
I also noticed quite a few of these beautiful fall leaves lying around. Not only did I get a quick "how-to" lesson but Julia sent me home with this pretty green leaf that now adorns our entryway table :) Yes, I said "adorns". Can you say "score"?
All that to say it's Julia's fault that I got into the fall crafting mood. I remembered making a fabric wreath years ago with different fabric for each season. One trip to JoAnn's Fabrics and we now have a fall wreath on the front door. BTW: it's super easy, you can google or ehow it.
Thank you, Julia for your creative ideas and for giving me the crafting, uh, well, I don't exactly have the bug but I do have the desire :) I really enjoyed making the pumpkin and the wreath. How does one mind come up with so many fun and creative projects?? Those of you who share the gene are blessed!

These are great! Summer used to be my favorite season but for quite a few years fall has taken over that spot. How fun to have these special fall adornments.
Wow! You are a quick student! Congrats on making your own wreath and pumpkin. I bet you're already thinking about the Christmas wreath to follow...
You did a great job on your projects. Come back before Christmas and we will work on new projects. Love the wreath!
Cute wreath!
